This post is for prompts that focus on crossovers between various slavery AUs, with the crossover wizards.

Please put the use name of your slave Matt in the subject line of your comment eg. "Feral: Fuck or 'die' AGAIN!"

I'll move a couple of prompts over to start us off, but feel free to ignore them and put your own.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"He's let me help before, but not offered to teach me really."

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Have you asked him to teach you? He may have assumed you were embarrassed or uninterested," she pointed out. "Do the others also help him, or is he solely responsible for most or all of the meals?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"He does most of the meals, but the others do help with smaller things, and we handle it when he has his weekly meal with master. I...haven't really had the energy to ask to learn."

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Would you like him to teach you some of the recipes, or take over some of the meals eventually?" she asked softly. "How much do you remember, from before your kidnapping?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"It depends. I don't remember as much about cooking as I do about knitting for instance. And...maybe not take over some of the meals, but I want to learn more recipes, yes."

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Do you think that he would react poorly to you asking to learn?" Instructor Marnie asked him shrewdly. "Or would he be happy to share?" She didn't quite have a perfect handle on how secure Jamie felt in the household, or if he was threatened by Toffee's new appearance.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"I think he'd be happy to share. I just haven't had the time or energy to ask to learn yet."

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Then that's something positive to look forward to," she said warmly. "Can you think of anything else positive to look forward to, to make the conversation easier for you?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Having time for my own knitting, not just trying to catch up on the assigned patterns for my steeking class." There had been options to bring in your own choice of patterns for some of them, but...

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

Marnie smiled at him. "It does sound lovely, doesn't it? What do you want to make, apart from the vest and Ivannya's blouse?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"A lopapeysa for myself, and a sweater with some sort of lace panel in for Hendrick, maybe another sweater with more lace for myself too. Need to figure out some sort of sweater to knit for Master Erik as well."

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"That sounds like a nicely full schedule," Marnie said, pouring the tea for both of them, and encouraging Toffee to put as much sugar or honey or milk as he liked. "Do you have any other concerns about the conversations, or how things will change after?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"I can't think of any."

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Then let's sit and enjoy our tea, and you can knit, and we can talk or enjoy the quiet atmosphere until they arrive," she suggested gently. "Tell me if anything comes to your mind that you need to discuss."

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Uh-huh. I will." He assured her and picked up his knitting again, ready to work on Jamie's vest.

Re: Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

It was all quiet and pleasant for a long while then, with just tea and murmurs of crafting, and then there was a rather panicked knock on the door. Marnie rose gracefully, having just begun a new pot of tea steeping for them all, and saw the three other pet-sibs and the owner looking all rather nervous. Their eyes were solely on Toffee as she nodded for them to come in, and immediately the three pet-sibs surrounded him and hugged him, frantically asking him what was wrong, what had happened.

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Too many classes, too much homework, not enough time to do everything." He whispered back to them as he leaned into their attention.

(OOC: Should I take Instructor Marnie over now?)

Hendrick, Jamie, Ivannya, Barba: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

Ivannya squeezed Toffee a little tighter, and Hendrick gently kissed the top of his head, and Jamie was holding his hand, looking ashen and frightened. She felt her heart still racing--she'd only gotten the text from Hendrick after her class, so she wouldn't be alarmed, but the details she'd heard in the car terrified her.

"Sit down," Barba's voice came over from where he was standing, not unkind, and they shuffled, allowing him to come forward and examine Toffee gently, looking at him for injuries and blood and bruises, and when he saw none sitting and carding a hand through his hair, and kissing him protectively, another hand tracing around his collar. Even Barba looked rather freaked out.

(OOC yeah, this is a lot of people already.)

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

She'd prepared tea while Toffee's household were reassuring themselves of his health, and she served it before speaking.

"Toffee has asked me to act as his advocate in this, to make this less stressful for him, is that acceptable?"

Barba, Ivannya, Jamie, Hendrick: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Yes--whatever helps resolve this," Barba said distractedly, moving to hold his Toffee in his lap, close to him as they sat on the floor, Ivannya by Toffee's right side and Hendrick huddled in close to her, and Jamie on Toffee's other side, pale with fear. "What's happened? How is Toffee right now? What do we need to do?"

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"He's doing a lot better because he trusts that we'll resolve the issue. The first thing to do is withdraw him from at least the steeking and pet literature classes - and ideally from the pet protocol class as well. He doesn't have enough energy yet to handle four classes, two of which have a very high homework load. And honestly, enrollment in the steeking class opens six months in advance because the homework's all meant to be done in advance of the class as much as possible."

Barba: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"What has changed that he cannot handle the classes right now?" Barba asked intently, and added firmly, "I'm not saying that we shouldn't withdraw him--but I don't understand why his health is so precarious, or how. Is his--what's happened?"

Instructor Marnie: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"He's only two weeks into his steeking class, and the strain was starting to show last week, but I worked with him on scheduling, and he hoped that would be enough. Unfortunately it's reached the point where it's starting to effect his physiotherapy too."

Barba: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"Then we withdraw from all the classes," Barba said immediately. "Except for this, I think--can you help him get back to normal and get better from there?" he asked directly, and pet Toffee with one hand, and wrapped the other around his waist, hoping to convey that he wasn't angry, just very, very concerned. "And why was it," he said, looking at the other pets, who also looked confused and worried, "That none of us have noticed this?"

Toffee: Overload and Burnout

[(Anonymous)]

"You all seemed to think I'd be able to cope, I didn't want to let you down." He admitted reluctantly.

"Yes, I can help him, but he needs free time to himself, time that isn't always doing whatever the people around him decide to do." Instructor Marnie put in gently.
